Justice Dept. accused of impeding CAIR 


DALLAS, Aug. 22 (UPI) -- The U.S. Justice Department has been accused by the
Council on American-Islamic Relations of impeding its operations through a
Texas court case. 


In a brief filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of
Texas, CAIR said that being named by the Justice Department as an unindicted
co-conspirator in a terror case has hurt its regular operations, The
Washington Times said Wednesday. 


"The public naming of CAIR as an unindicted co-conspirator has impeded its
ability to collect donations as possible donors either do not want to give
to them because they think they are a 'terrorist' organization or are too
scared to give to them because of the possible legal ramifications of
donating money to a 'terrorist' organization," the group said. 


The Dallas court case against the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and
Development has included alleged ties to terrorist groups and CAIR is among
307 named co-conspirators. 


The group has asked that its name be removed from the list and the
organization's attorney has said the court could approve the motion without
holding an official hearing, the Times reported.
